Funny People is my favorite performance of myself to date. Even though its a comedy and there are serious moments, I really felt like Leo felt like a real person. It didnt feel like I was playing myself. Whether its a comedy or drama, I just try to make it as realistic as possible. – Jonah Hill
Besides the fact that I make movies, theres nothing interesting about my life at all, unfortunately. – Jonah Hill
Look, at the same time that I dont want to be a celebrity, I understand that when you make movies you put yourself out in the public eye. Id be a baby and a fool to be like, Why are there cameras taking pictures of me? when Im on a billboard for a movie. I think thats a very absurd concept. – Jonah Hill
Ive learned through experience of playing different characters, some of whom were jerks, that when you play a character who is pretentious or obnoxious, in any way, its important to knock them down a peg. – Jonah Hill
